Car insurance...

However... I thought I was getting abused on a monthly basis by Direct Line to the tune of £140 for my car insurance (Ford Mondeo Estate, 2.2TDCi fyi... doing 20K miles a year, 10 years no claims, one ban and 3 points in the past).... As that had leapt up from the £80 I used to pay per month... But due to disorganisation I forgot to hunt around and just had to take the monthly financial drubbing...

This year however, I really do feel like Direct Line are asking permission to bend me over a barrel, pull my pants down and do me with something wooden that has splinters.

Why?

My insurance renewal for this coming year is now £280 per month... No circumstances have change *at all*.

£280? What the hell? How do you justify that Direct Line? And thats with discount for being a home owner, a Direct Line home insurance hold, and all the rest...

Time to kiss goodbye to my business for the car insurance, home insurance, pet insurance, the whole lot - you are taking the piss!!

Oh - I did phone up to confirm - They said the quote is correct... I asked whether the backers of Direct Line had a Crack and Cocaine habit to keep up (didn't wait for an answer).
